Re: Hard shift and a grinding going into reverse 200 82

Well if the clutch was gone it would grind in all gears but if the clutch

is very old like you describe the pilot bearing has probably dried up and

died and it causes the symptoms you describe. Grinding into first and reverse, but shifting into the other gears as you drive are fine. Of course, you must take apart the clutch just to get to the pilot bearing

so you should at least do the clutch disk and throw out bearing while you

are in there. At the price of a whole clutch kit its probably worth doing

the whole job. Make sure you grease the spines that the disk slides on

and lightly grease the throw out bearing guide tube. This will give you

a clutch that works like butter.
